vietnam was awesome! despite the pretrip jitters about the plane crashing, getting robbed, the education programme failing, ghosts in the hotel room etc. the vietnamese kids, or rather vietnames-people-who-are-arnd-our-age are really cute and uh interesting.
not to mention, the shopping was other worldly man. or other countryly. everything was cheaaaap and haggling is a mustmustmust. oh but nobody can beat chang and eunice at shopping though, some angmohs commented that "oh it's the amazing race" when they saw them hiong shopping at the night market.
it's amazing we all came back in one piece cos the roads there are insane. when pris cole nq and i went shopping and we had to cross the roads, we practically held hands and ran while screaming.
my roomies were weisin and bess, whom ive come to discover as amazing people who are funny interesting and veryvery lovable. we bond over dirty little secrets (I'LL KEEP YOU MY DIRTY LITTLE SECRET) and underwear in the sink. we, The People At The Back Of The Bus played bridge/daidi/cheat/bluff like there was no tomorrow and sang at the top of our voices along with the songs on sonjia's phone. along with the We Play Cards At Night But Don't Tell Anyone people, i survived on little sleep with them.
especially the last night where the We Play Cards At Night But Dont Tell Anyone people slept a grand total of an hour cos we wanted to stay up on the last night to hiong cards.
ICHIANS ARE THE LOVE
